$a=36/4 = 9$

Arrange your equation first:

$atimes4 = 6times6$

Now you can write:

$a=36/4$

$a=9$

This is your answer. $a=9$

$a = 9$

$a/6 = 6/4$

Multiply both sides by $6$ to cancel the denominator and isolate the $a$

$(color(blue)(cancel6)xxa)/cancel6 = (color(blue)(6)xx6)/4$

$a = 36/4$

$a = 9$
